Inpeco recalls FlexLab, Accelerator a3600 and Aptio Automation modular systems due to missing safety pacemaker labels. People with pacemakers must maintain 200mm distance from modules to avoid malfunction.
The firm has identified customer sites where there are modules on which the safety pacemaker label is missing. The information regarding the label included in the Operations Manual has been updated to specify that: 1) the risk of a pacemaker malfunction applies to anyone with a pacemaker who may work on these modules; and 2) the minimum safety distance has been increased to 200 mm (7.87") from the transport mechanisms. Any person with a pacemaker must not get closer than this distance from the modules axes.
Inpeco is recalling FlexLab, Accelerator a3600, and Aptio Automation systems because some units lack safety pacemaker labels. This risk affects people with pacemakers who work near these systems, requiring them to stay at least 200mm away from the equipment.
The systems have safety pacemaker labels that are missing on some units. If a person with a pacemaker gets too close to the equipment, it could malfunction and cause health issues.
People with pacemakers who work with these modular automation systems are at risk. The recall affects all units that have missing safety pacemaker labels.
Check if your FlexLab (FLX), Accelerator a3600 (ACP), or Aptio Automation (AP2) system has a missing safety pacemaker label. The label specifies a minimum 200mm distance from the transport mechanisms.
Look for the safety pacemaker label on your FlexLab, Accelerator a3600, or Aptio Automation system. If missing, take action.
